November 27, 2005ComplancencyTonight, I lay in bed, having called it a night. It was only 8:30pm.

I waited for Gareth to return, but he never did......Read this update November 07, 2005Messenger of God in a Taxi"Sir, I have only $50," I said, "you can drop me off anywhere before my final destination and I will walk the rest of the way." "You are honest," replied the Cab driver, his name was Joseph. "I will take...Read this update November 06, 2005I could almost cryMy eyes have been swelling up lately. I checked it out and the left one has conjunctivitis. I've been using drops lately, but I hope I don't need to see the doctor....Read this update November 04, 2005Day of RestA year ago, I was distancing myself from Oregon Boy and Cell Phone Kid.
